Asce 7 05 provides two methods for wind load calculation.
Flat roof snow loads p f the snow load that is applied to our structure is not the ground snow load but in most cases the flat roof snow load.
Uplift on the flat roof.
Per asce 7 10 buildings are composed of 5 different zones depending on the wind loading they are subjected to.
Evaluation of asce 7 10 flat roof c c interior zone asce 7 16 wind provisions evaluation of asce 7 10 flat roof c c there are problems with both magnitude of the area averaged pressure coefficients and the zone sizes using the larger coefficients and l shaped corner.
In order for a structure to be sound and secure the foundation roof and walls must be strong and wind resistant.
